Conf: set wayland as default session

Set wayland as default session

Fixes #746

[danirabbit]

Should we go ahead and go Wayland by default for OS 8 or should we stick with X11 for another cycle?

Is there any major support issues with Wayland? I know for a long while nvidia simply didn't work with it but is there anything else to be concerned about?

[danirabbit]

So far that I know of:

1. Some apps don't work well in the Wayland session. GIMP has issues with its menus. Boxes crashes the session (last I checked). Any app that isn't used portals for things like color picker isn't going to work

2. No onscreen keyboard. Onboard doesn't work in Wayland

3. Some Orca features don't work. I'm not sure which ones, this is just what I've heard

So maybe better to stick to X11 by default this cycle and continue to iron things out?

98% of the Nvidia issues are fixed in driver ~v558 when esync was added to the driver. So before setting Wayland as default we should also set the default Nvidia driver to that version or higher.

I think that is pretty reasonable. Given distaste towards Windows 11 seems to be growing, it would be good if we have a solid baseline of support for anything that is default in the system in case there is an increase of new users who are probably using an Nvidia card.
